Thailand aspires to become a global kitchen; a top supplier of food to the rest of the world. It also aspires to become a tourism, hospitality, aviation and wellness hub for the region -- if not the world -- to mention just some government objectives.
There is another aspiration which is not mentioned in any promotional brochures -- that it wants to become the world's biggest dump site for electronic and plastic trash.
So imported industrial waste is welcome in Thailand just like the way we embrace tourists and criminals in the guise of tourists who arrive for short visits without the need of a visa.
